Why is Marcone such a heavy magical hitter?
The_Sibelis:
Hendricks died... Because when Harry storms Valhalla for murphy's soul he's gonna need some inside help from gard.
Funnily, as I see Marcone as king Arthur that would make hendricks and gard Lancelot and Guin.. think this is a turning point for Gard to want to topple his kingdom.(oh but there are a few variations of course.. )

Maybe, but I think Marcone sees things his own way for his own gain. So far the partnership has worked out that way, but it may not always do that. No, Marcone isn't going to break away or try to on moral grounds, but because he does like to have things his way.

Please no... They would be.... Ugh.
On topic, I still have no explanation why Namshiel can sling so much power around using a "plain old vanilla" man like Harry describes Marcone. If the Fallen could do that then they'll not need any practitioners to carry them around. Supposedly, most what they can do is teaching techniques and turbo boost using Hellfire, so the energy isn't coming from them, but from the host. Remember that Tessa was described as a sorceress. With presumably centuries of tutoring from Namshiel. Still, her combat repertoire was quite limited. Harry soulgazed Marcone and shook his hand. Nothing.

One answer could be that all humans have the battery but that all humans have different wiring that determines how the individual taps the battery, the birthright part. Namshiel ability might be in being able to put in temporary jumpers to connect to the battery.
